Goat’s cheese and raspberry fool made with Franklin & Sons Pressed Raspberry Lemonade.
Starter
Kick off proceedings with an orange and grapefruit gazpacho – a bright and zippy starter that packs in the Vit-C and also happens to be vegan. To make it, blend grapefruit, orange and ripe vegetables with Franklin & Sons Valencian Orange & Grapefruit – which brings a bittersweet juiciness, modernising this classic Spanish recipe. Serve chilled with a frond of coriander for a pop of colour.
Main
If you’re looking to swerve the traditional chicken dinner this festive season, how about ginger beer chicken and ribs made from Franklin & Sons Brewed Ginger Beer? The heat of the full-bodied ginger beer harmonises perfectly with the spiced, umami-rich marinade made from soy sauce, allspice and honey. Finish with a generous squeeze of lime juice for a tart finish to balance it all out.
Dessert
Conclude dinner with a low-effort but high-reward goat’s cheese and raspberry fool made with Franklin & Sons Pressed Raspberry Lemonade. This elegant dessert whips goat’s cheese, double cream, a little icing sugar and lemonade to a feather-light consistency, making a moreish pud that stands up to any occasion.
